I saw these scans before on metal-archives forum and if i remember correctly this polish guy said that he bought it around 1990 when he worked on Metal Mind label.
I am very interesting too, what's from this truth. I own two another Scratch Japan CDs from 1986, and both without lyrics, just typical GAMA catalogue with album art in booklet.
Draw your own conclusions, but better warmachine say to us something

Sorry for my English... He told me, that in the 90's had a dozen copies of this CD but left himself one of the lyrics - the rest have Gama catalog.

So it's like a sort of "misprint" or something? I don't recognize your CD on scan like bootleg because font on matrix typical for japanese Scratch CDs, but it's just one and only copy with lyrics through the years. Very interesting. Does anyone on the Corroseum also have a copy of any Scratch Japan CD with lyrics?

It's probably a mix between original cd and 'bootleged' booklet ^^

My copy has lyrics too, it is (i think) identical to the one warmachine posted. And I see no reason to doubt it's originality. The lyrics are printed on low quality paper (different than the one used for the rest of the booklet), and are not stapled together with the booklet, so I guess most people just lose it. The gama Intl catalogue is on the "proper" part of the booklet.

Yes, Possessed by Fire CD which comes with the same inner side of booklet as scanned above
... which should also explain the lyrics printed on low quality paper - a home made copy in my opinion.

I don't think you looked at the scans from warmachine very closely. Even if we assume it is a bootleg, then it is not a home made copy and that is for a fact. So, why do you think after making every effort to make this look exactly like the original to the point that they are indistinguishable, someone went home with it and added a lyrics sheet printed on their personal needle printer?
Oh, and the lyrics are not "inner side of the booklet". I can throw it away and have what you think is the original.

I don't assume that the AD scan above is a bootleg. I just assume that your additional low quality paper with lyrics is a home made copy of original Exumer booklet (which mistakingly came with AD lyrics). Or not? What's on the other side of the paper?
EDIT: Just to make myself clear, with "home made copy" I mean a regular photocopy, not actually home printed.

Ok, I thought you suggest that the CD on the scan is fake.
I don't really understand the Exumer story, but on the other side the "lyrics sheet" is blank. I must say I never really cared about it before reading this thread.

None of the "Into The Dark Past" booklets posted here are legit. The original is only a single folded page with the GAMA catalogue on the inside pages. No lyrics of any kind.

And that is exactly what is on the other side of the booklet pictured here.
